4. APPROVED CHANGE(S):

a. Brief Overview of Change: The DoDAAD update application only supports 

DoDAAC and RIC updates. DoDAACs are six characters and RICs are three characters. Each 

is a unique field and should be handle separately. This change adds separate fields and removes 

the need to enter ZZZ for RICs, which is misleading since the RIC is only used as a threecharacter field in all applications.

b. Background: One database is used for both DoDAACs and RICs. Internally, they 

use the same key field. The difference between the two is the RIC begins with ZZZ (followed by 

the three character RIC) and only stores data in the TAC 1 (owner) and COMMRI elements.

is disabled and only the DoDAAC field is enabled. Six characters are required to designate a 

DoDAAC. If the user enters “ZZZ” and error message must appears and say, “RICs must be 

entered using the RIC field.

2. If a RIC field is selected via the radio button, the DoDAAC 

field is disable and only the RIC field is enabled and three characters are required to designate 

the RIC. The field must be limited to three characters and all three characters are required.
